Tool consolidation continues, with Palo Altoβs plans to absorb IBM's QRadar software. This movement will continue and makes sense for the consumers of security software, as well. The reasons are clear: According to a recent report, 75% of IT professionals spend between at least half their day β 4-6 hours β managing their cybersecurity tools. Some β 14% β are spending more than an entire shift (7-9 hours) managing tools. There are far too many time-consuming chores, including monitoring security platforms, patching vulnerabilities, responding to high-priority alerts, responding to low-priority alerts, wasting time responding to vulnerabilities that canβt be attacked because theyβre in lumps of code that never get called by the application, managing endpoint agents, integrating other security tools and analyzing alerts. This canβt go on. The future lies in consolidation.Β

Does βimprovementβ mean we will continue to improve, or just that these vulnerabilities change priority and still get fixed as slowly as before? Only time will tell.Β Β
